Hey Pete, Calm down man, I'm an atheist! It is my duty as a clear thinker to challenge the brainwashed into explaining their centuries-old fairy tale!

You know I think you ahve a good point alto of people that are really religious say that no one should work on sundays. And everyone who does is sinning. I know what you mean and I think its a good point.

Instead of asking an ignorant question about what you THINK God wants, why not open the Bible, see what it REALLY says about God and work on the Sabbath, and then you won't have to ask this question.
I recommend the book of Matthew, chapter 12, verses 1-13.

Someone with better knowledge of chapter and verse will respond giving an example where God says that saving a life takes priority as the highest commandment.

Since when did God say he doesn't want people to work on Sunday. That practice was concocted by a bunch of religious zealots to serve their own means.

Even ultra-orthodox Jews make exceptions for emergencies on the Sabbath.

God doesn't say, 'don't work on Sundays' he says take some time to rest, for our own best interest.

There is no God to care about whether we work on Sundays or not.

yes, they should. And then someone else should see there is no theft, ATMs should close, nobody should drive on roads, electricity deptt. should stop the supply.......
and earth should stop revolving the sun, the sun should also stop shining for a while I guess!!

The Bible also says "Thou shalt not bare false witness."
We have laws against perjury, fraud, libel and slander.
Do you notice the similarity?
Do you think the similarity is a coincidence?
